Yeah mine does, I just pose him with one leg slightly behind the other one and it helps to even him out

I don't love his combined mode more than superion and galvatronus, mainly because of his goody-goody/cheesy '80's headsculpt; but I love him, I fin that using blades and first-aid aleviate most of his problems with poseability in the eshoulders, plus, he locks together very well.
Overall I would take 100 re-uses of the hotspot mold before I ever consider buying another op/mm

Aside from no mustache he pretty much looks like every cop I've seen in the 39 years I've spent on earf. What do you mean by goody-goody?

I wish he had a mustache.
I didn't mean it to be insulting, but the new defensor head mold went really over the top to be vaguely human/obviously a cop, I dunno what my problem with it is exactly, mostly that the aviator shades look kinda silly, and not really something a super advanced alien robot, formed from many conflicting minds and personalities, would wear

Well I like him. I find it nice that Superion looks much more agile and streamlined, being an air-focused combiner; while Defensor is much more robust and armored, as he would need to be in order to venture into dangerous disaster-stricken zones and rescue people or bots.
And Devastator is Devastator...
Also, anyone else noticed that the Autobot combiners are much more color corrdinated than the 'Con ones?
I mean Defensor is basically blue, black white and red, while Superion is mostly White, Red, Black and Orange-y
Meanwhile Bruticus and Menasor are all over the place, color-wise.

Best Cop mustache since 1980

Also, this is what Defensor's combiner head reminds me of, might be more Decepticon

I would never tell you you are not allowed your opinion.
To me the head sculpt is congruous with a design aesthetic that was laid down by Takara MORE than 30 years ago. To my eye that esthetic defines a Transformer and separates them from other robot toys.

You're good, wasn't tryin' to call you out, or anything. It's just that, I look at it, and I see all the pic's of the cop (what is he from, terminator 2?) Like I bolded, he has a very humanoid styled face, with the distinctive cheek bones, and the lips and those aviator shades, are just so ridiculous; and I know Galvatronus has almost the same thing, but he is robotic enough for it to not matter (also he is evil, that makes a difference)

Y'know those little clear elastics that toys are often packaged with? Save em. They're good for keeping weapons in tricky hands, and things like thismunkimus prime wrote:That and the fact the axe can't be attached to the back of his robot mode.

Video Review - Transformers Generations Combiner Wars Legends Skywarp
- Motto: "Till All Are Pun!"
Fellow Seibertronian chuckdawg1999 was able to grab the third Seeker from the Combiner Wars Legends class line, part of wave 4 of the line overall which has been appearing at retail this month. There are some changes, it seems, so check out the video review below!
Skywarp completes the G1 Seeker trio quite nicely. Sure it's a repaint of Starscream but that was a solid mold, one I think is much better than the Classics Deluxe mold. Finding this online may be tough due to mark ups and scalping so an in-store purchase may be your best route.
